Hi! My name is Lina, and I’ve been working on UrbanSitter for a few years now. I am an auntie of eight incredible nieces and nephews whom I have helped take care of from birth into their childhood. I’m conversant in Amharic, French, and I am somewhat conversant in Arabic and Spanish. I am energetic, creative, and read wonderful bedtime stories! I can help with all kinds of homework, and can engage in various activities. If there are any particular subjects/activities or developmental milestones you would like me to help with, please let me know! I pay attention to detail & can maintain an organized space during and after activites. I take constructive criticism very seriously and try my best to implement changes immediately. I love working with children, from birth to big kids! Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! At this time I am only available on an occasional basis. Thank you! -Lina

Booked by 17 families in Annandale, VA

Hi everyone! My name is Laura, and I’m 31 years old with extensive experience (10 years+) caring for children of different ages. I’m currently looking for a full-time nanny position with a wonderful family. I’m certified in First Aid and CPR, fully vaccinated (including COVID-19 boosters), and I have a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record. I also have my own reliable vehicle and I’m happy to safely transport children to and from school, activities, appointments, and outings as needed. Beyond providing attentive, loving, and dependable care, I enjoy helping children with homework, preparing simple meals and healthy snacks, planning fun and educational activities, spending time outdoors at parks, doing arts and crafts, reading together, and even teaching Spanish if the family is interested. I strive to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I consider myself active, patient, responsible, organized, resourceful, and cheerful. I truly enjoy building meaningful relationships with the families I work with, and I’m proud to have excellent references available upon request. Availability: I’m available to start September 8, with flexibility to begin as early as August 24 if needed. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Thank you, and have a wonderful day!

Everything went great. She was so great withthe kids.

Booked by 38 families in Annandale, VA

Hi! My name is Rachel, and I recently graduated from the University of Mary Washington with a major in Biomedical Science. I aspire to become a pediatrician because I’ve always loved working with children and creating positive, fun experiences for them. I have been working with kids for over 5 years through babysitting, summer camps, church programs, and mentoring experiences. I previously worked with kids at Brooksfield School summer camp, where I helped lead engaging activities including sports and STEM projects. I loved getting to build connections with the kids while keeping camp fun, active, and supportive. I have also volunteered with children through Sunday School at my local church. In addition to childcare experience, I played collegiate lacrosse, so I enjoy staying active and encouraging kids to participate in sports, games, and outdoor activities. I’m responsible, energetic, patient, and passionate about creating a safe and enjoyable environment for children of all ages.

Hi! My name is Yabi and I am an MA Development Studies student based in Germany but back in the US for a while to work on my thesis. I love children and have worked with them throughout my life. Growing up in Ethiopia, I volunteered at multiple orphanages, taught English at schools and babysat for family friends. I moved to Denver, Colorado in June 2013 where I continued to babysit for family friends, then moved to San Francisco, where I worked regularly on UrbanSitter for almost four years while completing my BA. In my free time, I enjoy books, travel, badminton, languages, and going on walks near the water. I am passionate about education and am currently studying to earn my TEFL certificate. I also have a BA in International Studies with minors in African Studies and Politics. Additionally, I am fluent in English and Amharic; I have limited working proficiency in German; I can read and write in Arabic; and I am currently learning Mandarin. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Yabi is great!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
